Patriot Place is inviting fans to One More Super Bowl rally just days before the big game in Houston where the Patriots will take on the Atlanta Falcons in Super Bowl LI at NRG Stadium in Houston. The rally, which is free and open to the public, kicks off at 4 p.m. on Friday, Feb. 3, outside Splitsville Luxury Lanes™ | Howl at the Moon and Skipjack’s.

Comedian Chris Tabb, host of the Comedy Scene at CBS Scene, will serve as the rally’s emcee to get the crowd both laughing and pumped up for Super Bowl Sunday.

The event will include outdoor viewing on a 16-foot inflatable video screen:

Additionally, Feb. 3 marks the 15th anniversary of the Patriots first Super Bowl win – a thrilling 20-17 victory over the St. Louis Rams in Super Bowl XXXVI at the Superdome in New Orleans. U2 was the halftime performer that year. In celebration of the anniversary, Patriot Place is welcoming Joshua Tree – the premier U2 tribute band – to the stage from 5-6 p.m. for a live performance. Sticking with the theme of Super Bowl XXXVI in New Orleans, Patriot Place will be coordinating a roof deck toss on top of the roof of Bar Louie to give away beads, glow necklaces and t-shirts.

Elsewhere throughout Patriot Place will be Patriots rally card sign-making stations, and a Patriots banner for fans to sign and wish the team luck. Fans will also be able to enter to win the following while at the Patriot Place Super Bowl Rally:

Patriot Place will also be offering free skate at Winter Skate presented by Harvard Pilgrim Health Care for anyone who skates in their Patriots gear from 4 p.m. to close. The center will also be giving away rally cards, One More Patriots shirts, Patriots children’s books and mini Super Bowl XXXVI Champion banners.
